The  GPS150  should  be  connected  to  the  boat’s  DC  supply  via  a  1  Amp  fuse.  The  unit  requires  9.6V  to  28.8V  supply 
voltage. 

The GPS150 has a number of operating modes that can be set by adjusting four DIP switches inside the unit. Section 4 of 
this manual explains how to select the different modes. By default the GPS150 will output; 
 

GLL, GGA, RMC, VTG, GSA, GSV and ZDA once per second at 4800 baud (using GPS Satellites only) 

This default mode is good for most applications and is exactly the same as our previous GPS105 unit, which the GPS150 
replaces.    Below  are  the  wiring  details  for  the  GPS150  and  a  connection  diagram  that  shows  how  to  interface  to  other 
navigational equipment. 

Wiring Colours;

Power +  (12v or 24v) 

Black 

Power –  (0v) 

Yellow 

NMEA Out + 

Green 

NMEA Out – 

 

 

When connecting to a two wire NMEA 
Input  (such  as  Raymarine),  connect 
the GPS150 Yellow wire to the NMEA 
+  Input  and  the  Green  wire  to  the 
NMEA 

– Input. 

 

 

 

 

 

When  connecting  to  a  single  wire 
NMEA  Input  (such  as  Garmin), 
connect  the  GPS150  Yellow  wire  to 
the NMEA + Input and the Green wire 
to the Power 

– (0v).
